Sorted by popularity:

What's the weather like in Kefalonia in February?

February on the Greek and Ionian Island of Kefalonia remains fairly cool but there is slightly less rain to worry about than in January. Many hotels and restaurants on the island remain closed as it is the winter season. However, the accommodation that remains open will usually reduce their prices and if you book far enough in advance you could potentially get a very good deal.

Temperature

The average temperature in February is 10°C with highs and lows similar to that of January, with daytime temperatures only reaching a of 12°C and dipping down to 5°C after the sun sets. The lowest recorded February temperature is 7°C, while the record daytime high is a balmy 20°C, though temperatures this high are unusual. The last week of the month may be a little warmer by a degree or so. It would be best to bring only warmer clothes along on your trip, such as trousers, long sleeved tops and coats.

Rainfall

A waterproof jacket and an umbrella would also be necessary due to the high risk of rain in Kefalonia. As the weather can be quite changeable, check the local weather report before you travel. There is slightly less rain than in January, with an average monthly rainfall of 55mm over 11 days. The chance of some form of precipitation occurring is 38% of days, remaining steady over the course of the month, with thunderstorms and moderate to light rain showers most likely. Skies are partly cloudy or overcast throughout the month and wind speeds are typically just calm to moderate breezes.

Sunshine Hours

Sunshine hours in February rise to seven hours a day and they are set to keep rising each month until July. The average sea temperature is only around 15°C. It's at its coldest of the year, along with March, so certainly not the best time of year to come if you're hoping to do some swimming or water sports.

A separate room exhibits Kefalonia's plants and wildlife, while another traces the human story across prehistoric and ancient times. Next to the museum is the Centre of Environmental Education, which houses a large collection of shells from around the world and has a room dedicated to dinosaurs. Seminars, performances and educational programs are regularly hosted here.
